    At least after using a Subject line like that, you thought well enough of your post to add a diplomatic apology at the end of the message.

    Because of your gesture of diplomacy, I will not comment on the short-sightedness of using absolutes in your copy that can easily be dismissed as hype. LOL

      Very magnanimous of you, Bill.

      They are, in a sense, of course, hype ... and yet, you know, he has a point, too: it's a particularly interesting e-book, and well worth reading. Not least because of all its equally interesting outgoing links, several of which I'd seen before, forgotten to bookmark and was pleased to find again.

      It's unusually well written, too.

      And even the e-book design itself is one of the most interesting and nicest ones I've seen for a long time. It's all rather an asset, really. I'm "just saying".

        You are so pedantic Alexa.

        I am a writer, but I must admit that I occasionally have to look up the words you use, although not in this case.

        I can actually see in my imagination Warriors who scratch their heads when they read your posts... LOL "Just saying...."

          I think I've seen this book before, a while back ... I think.

          Anyway, it's a good and interesting read, and nicely formatted/styled, and so on.

          Hahaha.

          Why don't we all just add variations of the line "You're soooo pedantic, Alexa!", to our signatures? It'd save us a bit of work, I think!

          And I think Alexa should have a huge list of words, terms and phrases defined in hers, a bit like you see in contracts: "when I say <this>, I mean <whatever>; whereas <something else> refers to <that>", and so forth.

          "I'm just saying..."

          Gotta love it.

        Thanks Alexa for unintentionally, and inadvertantly answering a question of mine... and that is this; "Is it okay to begin a sentence with and "?

        If you (The WF's most prolific wordsmith) do it, its probably okay to do I would assume.

        I know what you are thinking... "John, I have seen your posts and you have alot bigger problems than whether or not you start a sentence with and".

        I know, I know... but a guy has to start solving those problems somewhere right?

        And is a good start. It has an "A" at the beginning. I am solving my problems in alphabetical order.

          oops, Alexa - there's always a critic

          The "and" is poetic license in this case...

          Interesting point. I always wrestle with myself over the And at the beginning of the sentence.

          Since I try to write in a conversational style, I sometimes allow myself to start a sentence with And, because it just seems to work well.

          But the critic in me is always telling me, "No, don't do it."

    "And" at the beginning of a sentence is an emphatic usage. It breaks rules, but people who know the rules know how to effectively break them.

    For every one of you here that is having fun with Alexa's use of a conjunction to begin a sentence there is a language purist who will have nightmares about it. That in itself is a worthy cause for using an emphatic "and" now and again.

    It's illegal (grammatically) to use "and" at the beginning of a sentence? And here I thought I had this stuff all figured out. <chuckle>

    To the OP: Thanks. I will give this a look. Appreciate it.

    And the plot thickens, as we come back to bump this baby and enforce this thread's title upon some other people whom are curious enough to clickthorugh, who rightly should so they find this wondrous ebook and get to reading it. And yes, Alexa did use "and" at the beginning of a sentence, they always said "rules were meant to be broken", with the 'and' it eventually was given the right to be broken.

    Yes. I certainly read this eBook.

    Chris is a fantastic writer. His goals are in line with my goals in life especially about

    Lifestyle Design-To get out of life what your heart so desires.i.e travel, meeting people and learning something to expand your knowledge of life.

    Whatever Chris writes about is something to hold onto and an eye opener to what our current situation is and what we have to do to get out of our comfort zones.

    There is more to life than following the norm for example get up and go to work from
    8:am to 5:pm.
    Chris travels and works at the same time. Travel seems to be one of his passion.

    The other thing I like about this book is the 'Energy Sucking Vampires' on the internet.

    This is relating to negative energy from people who will try to steal our dream or try to lessen our confidence of success whatever that might be. Any negativity can be a detroyer if we only allow it.

    I heard a quote many years ago from Eleanor Roosevelt:

    'No one can make you feel inferior without your consent'

    Its amazing how many positive people there are in this FORUM to rub shoulders with.

    My advice on this subject of negativity is to stay away from them.

      Since I have been on this forum, I am now a believer that one can make a living off the internet. What this e-book points out, and what I am finding out, is that it takes persistence and a lot of hard work. It can be done but not overnight. And, (LOL) there is A LOT of writing involved! Did not realize that when I decided to pursue this career.

      Great e-book to add to my growing arsenal of information on how to succeed in this business.

    Honestly, the reason I noticed the "and" is because, I regularly learn from Alexa's posts and pay alot of attention because it makes me a better writer... and I truly need all the help I can get. It was more appreciation than jesting... and saying "hey I really notice your writing, your perfection in written word is noticed and does count, and I, for one, learn from it..."

    If I were a wordsmith like Alexa I would be proud to know that others pay attention and learn from me, and are inspired... So, when someone writes like, that I pay alot of attention.

    I have had some great successes in the last ten years due to alot of determination, but I actually dropped out of school in the 8th grade, and now take every opportunity to educate myself in the things that matter to me. This young lady has alot to teach others, even unbeknownst to her.

    Isnt that how inspirations work many times? They dont even know they are inspiring half the time, just by being themselves.

    The warrior forum has been like a school to me in many ways. Our brothers and sisters here I feel like are the community that raised me as a marketer. I only hope to give some of that back as well.

    We are proud of our wordsmith here. She is one of the most prolific on the net as far as Im concerned.

    Hey Intrepreneur,

    Thanks for the recommend. I particularly liked the section on vampires and the link to the article hosted on The Onion about the guy that was telling the world that he was going to post a stupid comment on a blog somewhere at exactly 11:30 PM.

    For those of you that were more concerned with the emphatic "And" at the very beginning of a sentence ... well ... I just feel that your copious assertions are far too sagacious for my diminuitive comprehension.

    "just saying"

    All jibber-jabber aside, an excellent read!

      What an exellently written and inspirational ebook. It definitely felt nice not to be sold to for once. Now obviously this will detract some people because its not a magic button, but it has certainly given me some good ideas on how to intelligently manage my business.
